A new study has shown for the first time that endocrine disruption by glyphosate-based herbicides can not only be due to the declared active ingredient (glyphosate), but also to co-formulants used in the formulations. […]

Co-Formulants in Glyphosate-Based Herbicides Demonstrate Endocrine-Disrupting Effects on Human CellsStudies demonstrate that chronic long-term exposure to Roundup, the world’s most widely used herbicide, at an ultra-low, environmental dose can have potential significant health implications. […] Two leading US scientists stress the health dangers of herbicides used with herbicide-resistant GM crops, calling for a thorough reconsideration of all aspects of the safety of plant biotechnology. […] A scientific study has found that goats fed with genetically engineered soybean had 40% less immune substance in their milk, resulting in significant reductions in the weight of their offspring. […] A study has found that exposure via nasal inhalation to the Bt protein Cry1Ab produced immunogenic and allergenic reactions in mice. […] A review of studies on the health impacts of GM food on rats finds a serious lack of evidence on safety. Not only are there no published studies for most of the approved GM crops but those that have been conducted are flawed. […] Scientists from Norway have recently published a paper demonstrating reduced fitness levels in Daphnia magna fed Roundup-Ready soybean. […] A first-ever testing of glyphosate in the breast milk of American mothers has found ‘high’ levels in 3 out of 10 samples, raising concerns that the herbicide, widely used with GM herbicide resistant crops, can accumulate in the human body. […] This TWN Biosafety Briefing identifies the sources of health risks that can potentially arise from GM foods as well as presents the increasing body of evidence that shows the disruptive effect of the GM transformation process and clear signs of toxicity i […] In a long-term toxicology study, pigs feed a mixture of GM soy and GM corn had a heavier uterus and a higher level of severe inflammation in stomachs than non-GM-fed pigs.
